Hi everyone!

We are having problem getting the external clients of our application to communicate properly with the application-core (running jboss-4.0.3).

Depending on from which machine we're trying to make the call we get two different error-cases.

Case 1:
Lookup of bean works but then later when actually trying make the remote-call the client hangs. We don't get any exception, nothing. After ca 30 min we get a timeout. tcpdump shows that the method call is getting through and that the server is sending a response back to the client but after that it's totally silent between the two.

Case 2:
When looking up the bean the client hangs. When doing a tcpdump at the same time as doing the lookup we don't even see that the client is trying to access the server.

We've with telnet verfied that a connection can be made from the machine where the client is running to the server where the bean is running.

Lookup code:

env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
env.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES,"org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://"+server+":"+port);

InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(env);
RemoteReportController rc = (RemoteReportController)ctx.lookup(RemoteReportController.class.getName());

Does anyone have any idea why this is? We find it quite weird that it's just getting stuck instead of throwing an exception.

Would appreciate any help!

Cheers
Johan
